I love that the kids are involved. Not only watching to guys investing your money, but that they are involved in the reno process :) It's important to show your kids these things!
Yes! Great opportunity for the kids to be a part and earn some money.
It's bothering me so much that you didn't tap anything off to protect the frames, outlets, or lights from getting painted but maybe my fam is just messy? Also a painters edging tool makes quick, easy, and really neat lines for the wall to ceiling and corners!
My dad had rental properties when we were growing up and he always paid us to paint and clean and cut the grass when people moved out. Great way to bless your kids, save money, and teach life skills 👏
I love everything but the most the teaching.
People constantly think that you will have talks with your kids.how to handle money,how to be active,how to do X,Y,and Z. That’s how you teach children.
Doing with them,making them do it yourself. Be together in family time. Family time does not consist only be in front of the tv,movie,concert. Is right there.
Thank you!
Great point
I own 13 single family homes. I paint them all the same light gray color. When tenants move out, I can usually just do touch ups.
Love the way the whole family came on board to work hard. Great results.
I use an artist paint brush to paint my those finger wide spaces you run into from time to time. Works great. No taping required.
Am I only one who liked the green color in the kitchen? I thought it looked so friendly! I am personally more a fan of warm colors and natural wood. But I get how you would wanna keep it neutral as an investment property
I liked it too. I would have left it green and painted the cupboards white instead
Hands down, favorite part is that you picked up & held the dog to let him know "it's all okay"! Such a relieved, content look on his cute face 🐾😊 And the house looks awesome - the family that paints together .... 🖌👍🏠
Man I really wish people would not switch out a ceiling fan from a bedroom. I know it looks nicer but in practical terms they’re so useful. The previous owners did this in our house and it makes me crazy.
They can always include a floor fan for their air bib renters. Those ceilings were pretty low!
Remember, they are in a cold climate. There really isn’t a need for ceiling fans.
Agree!!! I would DIE without a ceiling fan in my bedroom! It's on every night almost year round!
I live in a similar climate as Christine, although in Canada, and let me tell you, these ceiling fans are unnecessary. Now an AC for the hot/humid summer months is another story
@@kniddelliz7512 I live in Newfoundland and we have ceiling fans that we use year round 😅
1)SAVE all receipts for tax purposes since this is a rental 2) make the people renting SHOW you proof of rental insurance 3) be prepared to get upset when renters trash it(we went with management company so they would go to court and handle paperwork side 4) keep a folder of ALL cost..include the painting in there so you’ll know what to charge to get it repaired when they move out. 5) GET A GOOD down payment.We had one good person ,even after interviewing,etc, the pets trashed it too. New carpet and sub floor…but all that time we spent to repair,etc…made us sick. After the last one left it In reasonable shape, we cleaned it and sold it and put money elsewhere to grow.
We renovated our house this year and I also used the agreeable gray. I am in LOVE with that color. Mainly because depending on the light in the room, it has so many hues. Looks like you didn't have to do much repair on the walls. That is a great time saver too. Looks amazing!
We're fixing our house up to sell right now and have painted almost every room agreeable gray and I can't believe how much nicer everything looks! We have 2 more rooms to go!! :-D
We painted our house in the agreeable gray. It’s beautiful and have done different decorations in the rooms. Everything from barn wood to clean black and white. It goes with everything.
That cute boy wiping down the wall for you!! ❤️❤️❤️ You are truly blessed to have the sweetest kids.
Love that u include painting of the closets in painting of house. I remember going to look at homes for sale and walk into a beautiful painted house and then u open the wardrobe. To me it's not finished if its not painted. Nice job on the house.
It truly is amazing how paint can make such a drastic change!! Love how you all rock this out together as a family! Love the paint color you chose!💓
I HATE painting, but always love it when it's done. It's definitely the biggest change you can make. The house is looking great!
Love your videos! Would you ever consider doing a video with your kids about how they view money and you spoke to them/ raised them about money, life, etc? My son is 3 and after seeing some parts of this videos I am inspired by the relationship you have with your kids! Thank you for your videos!
I watched this again just now because it amazed me how just painting really changed the look of each room! Awe struck!😯😯
Hi what a pretty picture you've on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say Hi!! I hope my compliment is appreciated 😊
Hailey was killing it with the paint! Great job everyone!
Awesome job! Speedy reminds me so much of my dog (Bichon Frise). He’s such a cute doggie. I miss her snuggling up with me on a blanket.
The yellow closet transformation was astounding. Well done!
Love the new paint!!! All the different colors were driving me crazy. Lol. The house looks fantastic.
I know you've got this house painting under control, but GIRL we have been using a Wagner Smart Roller and what a life and time saver!!! You suck the paint up in the handle and rock on!!! We had been skeptical, but we bought one for $32 and couldn't be happier. Con: You do have to wash everything, and that can be a tad bit of a pain. You need to try it if you guys purchase another home or you need to paint a room!
so much anxiety from the floors not being covered and no tape lmao i know its just me but i wouldve removed the shelves in the yellow room before painting cause now theyre gonna be stuck to that wall, and i wouldnt have removed the ceiling fan completely maybe just replaced it to something more minimal or just left it (but i grew up in the south you gotta have fans man) still enjoy seeing a good house painting bring some new life, even if i was all grey lol
We are also at the painting stage of our rental property and we did the opposite of you! BUT only 2 of us and it isn't our first rodeo so to save our shoulders and necks we are letting the pros do it! $2,000 for the whole house and they will come back and do the garage when it is ready for an extra $300!
I'm glad to see the infection green walls go.
Ok, Editing Christine, I laughed out loud as you painted the bathroom and the music was "king of my own throne". ☺️ Was that Andrew making faces? 😆
Hi what a pretty picture you've on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say Hi!! I hope my compliment is appreciated 😊
Love me some agreeable gray and white! Fresh, clean and updated! What a cute house but all of those colors....it was like a patchwork quilt! Looks so good!
I totally agree!
I love how you got the kids involved. So inspiring.
I agree professionally painter are expensive but its some of the Best money you can spend especially for term long, it would have made such a big difference even when you'd like to change the colors yrs later & they make it easier for touch ups from everyday chips & dengs from accidents.
Vents would look more seemless if the colors are closer to the floor
Wow! The paint made SUCH a difference. It looks SO good!
Next time rent interior scaffolding- depends on where you live about $250. way way cheaper than an emergency room visit.
I can't believe how great you control the paint roller! You didn't even tape off! 🤯 awesome job. Live the new colors
My husband works for a SW distribution center and Lowes and SW paints are both packaged and distributed at the same facility. I found it super interesting!
I bought a little giant ladder, best ladder ever. Great job on the repainting.
Wow! Your ability to paint without taping is a huge flex! 😅 and what is that tool that you're using for all the edges? It looks effortless to use
We always do our own painting! Totally agree Lowe’s has the BEST paint for the best price!!!! Hands down!
My sister's house has several rooms with the super deep colors and it looks really nice. This? Not so much LOL. You did a great job renovating!
Wow what a difference!! Looks so light and bright!
Hi what a pretty picture you've on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say Hi!! I hope my compliment is appreciated 😊
It's great to know at least some folks can look beyond paint to the bones of a house. I've been watching videos on staging houses where I've realized that many, many people either don't want to bother or don't know how to see the real house underneath bad paint or dodgy decor. The house you're working on looks great! Congratulations on a fine investment property!
I love that white and blue floral shirt ! Just my style 💙
My OCD is kicking in! I won’t let anyone help me paint it gives me anxiety! Lol and your doing it backwards (for me) I always cut in the edges first! Awesome job though!! And so glad you went the route of the kids helping!!
Awesome job. The colors make the room bigger and brighter.
the new paint colours is making everything look good, well done.
Thank you!
Bright clean and neutral are always best. Great job!
Wow! What a difference. Paint job looks amazing. Your tenants will love it.
I just realized why the previous owners painted the kitchen/laundry room the colors they did! They wanted to paint it an apple color but couldn't agree on which apple to go with. 🍏🍎🍏🍎🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
Congrats on the purchase of your new home
Thank you!!
It looks good and I'm so impressed at how much you get done!! Two TH-cam channels and repainting an entire house. So impressive!
My laundry room is off my kitchen as well. You are right, it is not the most idealm
I find it very bold and interesting to go in with the paint without any taping and priming up to the edges.
Very impressive! I love that the whole family was involved in the transformation of the home-great job!
I would love to see more videos like this one!! please post more to this channel!
Love how paint changes the whole look! Fresh and bright, looks so much better. Love the doggie, he's so cute❤
Congratulations 👏, I got this twice, but I enjoyed it both times 😀. Can’t wait for next one
I got it twice too
I have to say, your kids paint like they are professionals. And they are so young!! 👏🏻👏🏻🥰
I love how you all step in and do a great job at brightening up this house. Your kids are real troopers, and Dave and you are leading by example!
Wooohooo 🎉 Kaylee awesome job!! ? I noticed there is some texture on the walls. My goal for 2022 is to “just start “. The rollers I bought suck! Any suggestions? Love your channels
I love it! My husband and I are talking about an investment property too. We will do our own fixes and paints also. So much more cost effective!!!! Great job!
It's so funny how different people's tastes are! I love the bold colours of the original house, and in fact just bought our first house..... and it's all new off-grey and I hate it. I can't wait to paint, but no one else cares, so I guess I'll be living in this minimalist hell.
Looks great! What an undertaking but you guys rocked it!!
Oh my gosh!! The green and red!! Lol! Thats what colors were used in the studio apartment we are fixing up! Exactly the same colors😳 whyyyyyyyyy??? Lol
The part with Speedy made me laugh so hard 😂 you’re cute as a dog lady! Lmao
We have a rental property that we are having to renovate (thanks to our last tenant). If only we could really paint at this speed! 😀
Right?! It takes so much longer than this video. LOL!
Those are hard colors to fully cover up!!
Love love love that you paid the kids
It looks so good! Painting is one the my favorite, cost effective updates!
Mine too!
Congrats on your purchase
Nice job. For the ceiling fan, you can paint the blades to brighten the color up. Some cheap trim around the master mirror will update that as well. It is nice how paint, and minor changes like new switch plates can transform a space. When I moved into my house the kitchen, despite being a larger space was painted black. Yes, black. With one tiiiiny window it was like stepping into a horror movie. Lol. Painted it a soft yellow and it was suddenly my favorite room. Great job tho. I cannot wait to see it furnished. Remember, Goodwill, antique stores and thrift stores have great stuff too. Ty for sharing this process with us.
Everything looking great, Christine. So sweet the kids were Involved. I like the colors you chose and it looks like it would go with any decor.
I spray painted my vents and it worked great. I love the paint job. You have a wonderful paint crew! My dad always said paint covers a multitude of sins….ugly paint sins!?! Lol 😂
Hailey is a beast at painting!!!😄😄😄
Hi what a pretty picture you've on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say Hi!! I hope my compliment is appreciated 😊
You have to spray those vents we did it at our first house with rustoleum pro it lasted for years and look great. And it only takes 2 or 3 cans. Best frugal way to refresh.
Well, the previous owners were not afraid of color.
Love the House Projects 😎
My w/d are literally in my kitchen. 🙃 Was a retrofit in an old Chicago condo building, so mostly I’m just excited to have them!
The paint looks fantastic.
Those are definitely Dave & Christine's kids, look at the go at it!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Great family project.
My laundry area is in my kitchen pantry and I actually love it! I spend a lot of time in the kitchen and it is great to be able to easily attend to the laundry.
It looks amazing! Closets are the worst to paint but so satisfying to look at when you are done.
Dang lady. You are busy. 😅 The rental place looks much better now.
Those are some wacky colors. Looks so much better with the neutrals! Painting is so satisfying. Great work. Also a bonus. The trim is white. I remember your pain of having to paint the tan trim in your other house.
Well done on the house so far. Going more neutral is better you don’t want a specific style with this kind of property.
I'm such a weirdo..I loved the red in the kitchen 😬
You and your family did a great job painting. However, $5,000 to paint the entire house isn't expensive if you break it down. How many hours did it take six of you to tape everything off, prime all the walls, and apply two coats of paint? And there are six of you. Granted, they are professionals, but it would still take a significant amount of time over multiple days for multiple people.
I don’t think she meant to diss the professionals price. Just saying they would rather save the money and do it themselves. I would do the same.
Great job on the house!! It looks so cohesive and bright!! We always spray paint the vents if they are metal. Plastic ones get replaced.
What an amazing transformation! I can't wait to see how it turns out at the end!
Warm grays like agreeable and repose help dated wood cabinets looks so much better! 😗👌
Love the fact the kids were involved! 😍 the house looks so much better, great job!
Since you are getting to the kids to help, you could always pay them through the biz and get those Roth IRAs started 😀 Double win... handy skills and money skills in one go!
This remodel looks absolutely amazing! The colors are so neutral and it really brightens up the whole house. These are great ideas for budget friendly improvements! You guys did a great job!
Looks so much better! I love paint. Love that the whole family was involved.
Hi what a pretty picture you've on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say Hi!! I hope my compliment is appreciated 😊
Looks so good! We do our own painting too and have saved so much money . Saved enough painting our two story foyer to purchase hardwood floor for our bedroom ( that my husband and I installed as well )
Oh man, I hate painting so much! However, we also got a quote for a painting company to do just our front hall, stairwell, and the doors. It was also around $5000. There’s no way I could convince my husband that we should hire them, so we did it ourselves. Yuck. But, our house looks so much better with the fresh paint. We had a super dark brown in our dining room and kitchen. I hated it. We lived with it for 8 years!!!!!! That’s how much I hate painting 😂. It’s now a much happier, lighter colour.
Wow what great progress! You are right - a can of paint makes a huge difference! Transforms the rooms! The voice over was a perfect for this type of video - but a small suggestion - the music was loud compared to your voice and I found myself adjusting the volume with every transition from music to your voice. Music is great but need to find a balance with the volume of the music and your voice.
Looks great. Lots of work.
I would upgrade and get better toilets. Cheap toilets will only cause issues with renters. Get a Kohler or Toto toilet asap. Trust me it is worth it.
Hi what a pretty picture you've on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say Hi!! I hope my compliment is appreciated 😊
This is very satisfying to watch - such a face lift everywhere!!
